The Devil made me do it – bake his cookies, that is. I had a box of Betty Crocker Devil’s Food Cake Mix in my pantry, and I decided to make cookies instead of cake. They were sinfully delicious.
If you like ooey, gooey chocolate cookies, give this recipe a try. They are bad to the core and easy to boot.
First, get a box of Betty Crocker Devil’s Food Cake Mix. If you are a regular Kroger customer, they send out coupons for free boxes every month or so. That’s why I now have more boxes of cake mix in my pantry than Kroger’s has on their shelves.
In a medium bowl, mix the cake mix, 2 beaten eggs, 1 stick melted butter, ½ cup of rolled oats and 1 C semi-sweet chocolate chips. Stir with a wooden spoon until the mix is fully absorbed, then put tablespoons (more if you want larger cookies) of the cookie dough on a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake each batch for 10 minutes in a 350 oven. You’ll get about 30 cookies that go very nicely with a glass of cold milk. I think they may even be better than fresh chocolate chip cookies.
The Devil you say!
